I left my past at the altar

Last night I left my past at the altar...
It is strange how many times I've left it there
To go back the next day and pick it up again...
But last night, see last night was different
I left it there, to never get it back...
I have laid the past to rest
And I have left him there...

Today is on to better things
I will look forward and not back
I have left him go and I might never get him back...
But that's ok, because I know there will be better things ahead...

So Lord, please help me
To not take it back again...
Give me the strength I need
To keep moving forward and not turn back...
